\"IMG_2782\"<\/a>Happy weekend everyone. It\u2019s Aristotle here and I\u2019m rather in the doghouse. Please, please don\u2019t tell my Master, but whilst we were in kennels for a couple of days this week I might have slightly destroyed Shadow\u2019s brand new bed that he chose and bought for her birthday. I shared a kennel with Mum so she could keep an eye on me, but as it turned out I led her astray into a game of tug. It took two of us, but I was the ring leader as our Mistress well knows. I regret it now that you come to mention it, but you know what it\u2019s like when you\u2019re a bit bored and get carried away. Alfie and Wilma clearly don\u2019t know what it\u2019s like as they were both goody four-paws and quite enjoyed each other\u2019s company. If I ever share with Alfie he won\u2019t go anywhere near me when we get home. I can\u2019t think why. However, he and Wilma were still as happy to curl up together. That puppy really is the limit. I was hoping having a puppy in the house would mean I wasn\u2019t the one getting into trouble all the time, but she so likes to please everyone that she rarely puts a paw wrong.<\/p>\n

Having said all that I\u2019m quite keen on this training thing we\u2019re going to do together. My observation is Wilma is getting offered much better treats than I am as part of her training, so it may be an opportunity to put a bid in for the ones I like. Mind you, as I like pretty much all food that should not be hard. One thing she and I have in common is a real love of the smell of both beer and wine. We make it quite hard for our Mistress to have a drink because if she holds it at the wrong angle we rather take advantage and dip our tongue in it.<\/p>\n

As I\u2019m writing this a moment has just happened that I wish we\u2019d caught on film. Wilma, who doesn\u2019t get have quite the coordination of one of us adults, has just chased her tail and fallen over in the process. She looked a little confused but got up and carried on for another go.<\/p>\n
